Circle II Circle Announces Wacken Open Air As Kick-Off Date To Their Euro Tour

Circle II Circle will be kicking off their Tour Of Megellan 2012 at the prestigious Wacken Open Air Festival in Wacken Germany. CIIC takes stage on the evening of August 2, 2012 and will be performing the Savatage album Wake of Magellan in it's entirety. It's without a doubt the show you'll want to see if you're one of the countless fans that have followed them loyaly!! This will indeed be a performance you don't want to miss.

Circle II Circle features the voice of Atlantic Records recording artists Savatage from 1992-2000, Zak Stevens, and was formed in 2003 in Tampa, FL. CIIC currently has five world-wide releases to its credit over the last nine years; "Watching in Silence"(2003), "Middle of Nowhere" (2005), "Burden of Truth"(2006), "Delusions of Grandeur"(2008), "Consequence of Power" (2010) as well as four additional EP releases. CIIC fans will be excited to hear that they are working on their sixth album titled “Seasons Will Fall” and will be released with a date TBA in early 2013, with tours and festivals to surely follow.

To put CIIC in a specific genre style isn’t easy, but you can expect every live show to deliver the high-powered thunder of that Southern rock-edged, progressive metal/hard rock sound that has become their unique trademark. As always you can anticipate a heavy dose of Stevens’ over-the-top power and ultra-melodic rock vocals leading the charge. The current live set offers a tribute to Savatage with all of the most requested songs from Zak’s era, intertwining a powerful collection of CIIC songs from the past decade; in short … one amazing concert!!

Being able to reinvent themselves over and over again and staying relevant is extremely hard to do, and the fact that they are able to over-come this massive obstacle is something that very few bands have done. It proves that CIIC is here to stay, and with the recent signing to RageOn Stage Management, we’re told that lots of plans are in the works with this new merge and the buzz for more USA tour dates has started to gain attention from the media and loyal fans.
